Hi all,
Just checking in as I'm sure you're all wondering when the next update is out!
I've had a few setbacks with both the code, the source material and real life for the new Aurora 7 mission but I'm back on track and currently working on the mission audio.
I really hope to have this out soon as I want to get on to the remaining capsules. The last year has been a massive slog with less than I hoped to show for it so I'm keen to up the pace a little!
I have also been doing a lot of the admin side of things, including working out when to push the project from alpha to beta, and then set it as "released" on steam (rather than early access). This is important moving forward as, currently, GFL only sells a couple of copies a month as it's hidden away in the Early Access backwaters. More sales means more freedom to work without having to pick up other work to pay the bills!...so you can imagine I'm keen to get it out there!
So the plan is to get the full set of capsules and their flights in place, then do several sweeps of the capsule systems to fill in missing functions, and finally a few passes to the system to add features like game saving and progress tracking.
Then, finally, after the steepest learning curve of my life, GFL will be a fully fledged game!
Once this basic set of features is completed I will then go on to add the mission control feature in version 1.1...after that, who knows!
Thanks for your continued patience!
Joe
